Jeremiah 33:11 meaning and explanation

the sounds of joy and gladness, the voices of the bride and bridegroom, and the voices of those bringing thank offerings into the house of the LORD, saying: ‘Give thanks to the LORD of Hosts, for the LORD is good; His loving devotion endures forever.’ For I will restore the land from captivity as in former times, says the LORD.

Jeremiah is confined in the guard courtyard while Jerusalem is under siege, and God answers his prayer with a promise of restoration. Verses 10 and 11 contrast the deserted streets with the sounds that will return: joy, celebration, the voices of bride and groom, and worshipers bringing thank offerings and singing that the LORD is good and his chesed, his steadfast covenant love, endures forever.
